VENETO RIVER – Cycling, trophies, and awards: a relationship that is more than symbiotic—we might even say necessary—and has always represented one of the most beautiful and traditional aspects of this sport. We visited the new operational headquarters of Morpheus Gadget, in Fiume Veneto, just a few kilometers from beautiful Pordenone, a company highly specialized in the design and customization of sports awards, gadgets and corporate gifts.
We were truly impressed by the structure, dynamism, and ambition of this company, part of the Adimo 3D Solutions group, to gain market share. A first important point to highlight is that the daily activity of this company differs greatly from what might simply come to mind thinking generally about standard products aimed at event awards.
Custom Trophies
«Adimo was born to revolutionize the world of customized products – Riccardo Pellegrini, Operations Director of Adimo3d Solutions, confides to us – welcoming within it four branches of the company: real divisions, all four specialized in processes that require the use of 3D printersToiomoro, Oltre Industrial, Omida Design, and Morfeo Gadget. It's precisely the combination of the 3D printing process and our experience that puts us in the ideal position to create high-quality, customized objects that are immediately available to customers. With Morfeo Gadget, specifically, We address directly all those, such as the organizers of cycling events for example, who require trophies, medals or commemorative plaques for their awards.
«But – he continues – the aspect that most differentiates us from the rest of the offerings on the market is the maximum flexibility and customization we can achieve by exploiting the production of the same objects with our 3D printers. We already have over 120 of them operational at this time., and our main characteristic is precisely that of best interpreting the client's needs, often providing them with inspiration based on our experience, with the aim of creating a unique, personal trophy that is strongly symbolically linked to the context in which the event takes place. Furthermore, we are very fast in production and have no minimum order quantities.. For us… the warehouse doesn't exist, everything we produce is shipped quickly to the customer."
Graphics and 3D printing
A practical, extremely concrete example that represents very well the dynamic and creative spirit of Morfeo Gadget is provided to us by the next National Meeting of Societies for Young riders People, scheduled this year from 20 to 23 June in Tarvisio (Udine) and organised by the ASD Brandiziol Cycling Team.
Morfeo Gadget's in-house graphics studio designed and developed Mandi, the Meeting's friendly mascot...
"To design the mascot," Pellegrini confides, "we involved all the members of the organizing club, the ASD Brandiziol Cycling Team, and we set them a challenge. What was it? Well, simply to design the next mascot for the Meeting. The great enthusiasm aroused by the initiative led to the creation of many drawings on the themeEveryone showed great creativity and passion. In the end, one was chosen, which, after reviewing with our graphic designers, led us to the final version. At that point, we needed to give the mascot a name, and the choice was almost immediate: Mandi! A 100% Friulian word that well represents the values of our territory (man – di, literally in the hands of God)».
